Winning CFOs: Implementing and Applying Better Practices, with Website

Leading expert in the development of winning KPIs (Key Performance Indicators), David Parmenter has written WINNING CFOs: IMPLEMENTING AND APPLYING BETTER PRACTICES (John Wiley & Sons, Inc., $60.00, April 11, 2011), to show CFOs, controllers and corporate accountants how they can learn to adopt better practices for their financial teams. WINNING CFOs: IMPLEMENTING AND APPLYING BETTER PRACTICES, provides best practice solutions that the author has learned from more than 4,000 financial managers worldwide.  Parmenter, refers to the term “better practices" instead of "best practices" throughout the book, because what is best for one size organization may not necessarily be suitable for another.  The goal of the book is to help financial managers implement better practices that will make a difference to the finance team's performance, and to create permanent improvements in their organization's processes. WINNING CFOs is essential reading for Controllers, CFOs, Accounting Managers, and Business Managers.
